Alison Stenton, Year 3 class teacher and science leader, said: “We’ve had lots of interest from our children, some of whom have recently created wildlife habitats around our school garden.
“We are also running a competition in school for all children, to create a piece of artwork, writing or photograph of the birds in their garden and are offering a prize for the best work in each building.”
Greasbrough Primary kids also enjoyed the nature project, which saw them making bird feeders to hang in their gardens.
